Pros

Benefits are competitive, but at the expense of pay, raises, and bonuses--all of which compare poorly to industry norm's (try bottom 25%)

Cons

Sanofi-Genzyme is a worst case, plodding big-pharma mess. The thought that Genzyme could be the kernel around which a biotech leader could be built is laughable—by industry standards Genzyme is ancient history. More troubling is a low performing culture, no incentives, no motivation, and truly horrible management. There are forms and processes galore but no real adherence to the processes, nor to ethical standards— even common sense and common decency have left the building. The only thing good about employment here is it affords you time to actively search for another job.

Pros

The company has an excellent, very collegial atmosphere. Employees are supported well and there is excellent support for most processes from numerous line functions.

Cons

Some processes as well as the governance structure can be a bit confusing. More so than other large pharma companies. But even with this. There are almost always enough people who know how to get things done.
